Abstract

A display includes: a first light-emitting device disposed in a first region on a substrate and including a transfer organic layer; a second light-emitting device disposed in a second region adjacent to the first region on the substrate and not including a transfer organic layer; and a level difference provided between the first region and the second region, and being large enough to inhibit transfer of the transfer organic layer to the second region when the transfer organic layer is formed in the first region.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
What is claimed is: 
     
       1. A display comprising:
 a first light-emitting device disposed in a first region on a substrate and including a transfer organic layer; 
 a second light-emitting device disposed in a second region adjacent to the first region on the substrate and not including a transfer organic layer; and 
 a level difference provided between the first region and the second region, wherein the level difference comprises a difference between a thickness of a material disposed between the substrate and the first light-emitting device and a thickness of a material disposed between the substrate and the second light-emitting device. 
 
     
     
       2. The display according to  claim 1 , further comprising:
 a planarization insulating film between the substrate and the first light-emitting device and the second light-emitting device, 
 wherein the level difference is formed by a difference between a thickness d 1  of the planarization insulating film in the first region and a thickness d 2  of the planarization insulating film in the second region, the thickness d 1  being larger than the thickness d 2 . 
 
     
     
       3. The display according to  claim 1 , further comprising:
 a first color filter between the substrate and the first light-emitting device; and 
 a second color filter between the substrate and the second light-emitting device, 
 wherein the level difference is formed by a difference between a thickness t 1  of the first color filter and a thickness t 2  of the second color filter, the thickness t 1  being larger than the thickness t 2 . 
 
     
     
       4. The display according to  claim 1 , further comprising:
 a first color filter between the substrate and the first light-emitting device, 
 wherein the level difference is formed by a thickness t 1  of the first color filter. 
 
     
     
       5. The display according to  claim 1 , further comprising:
 an opening insulating film, on the substrate, having openings corresponding to light emission regions of the first light-emitting device and the second light-emitting device, 
 wherein the opening insulating film has a rib around the opening corresponding to the second light-emitting device, the rib forming the level difference. 
 
     
     
       6. The display according to  claim 5 , wherein
 a surface of an electrode of the second light-emitting device is partitioned by an insulating material into two or more regions. 
 
     
     
       7. The display according to  claim 1 , wherein
 the transfer organic layer is a first light-emitting layer, and 
 a second light-emitting layer is included in the first light-emitting device and the second light-emitting device as a common layer. 
 
     
     
       8. The display according to  claim 7 , wherein
 the first light-emitting layer is a yellow light-emitting layer, and 
 the second light-emitting layer is a blue light-emitting layer. 
 
     
     
       9. The display according to  claim 1 , wherein
 the first light-emitting device is configured of two or more devices including the transfer organic layer as a common layer, and includes color filters of different colors facing the devices, respectively. 
 
     
     
       10. The display according to  claim 9 , wherein
 the first light-emitting device emits yellow light, red light, and green light by separating light emitted from the first light-emitting device by the color filters into three colors, and 
 the second light-emitting device emits blue light. 
 
     
     
       11. An electronic unit including a display, the display comprising:
 a first light-emitting device disposed in a first region on a substrate and including a transfer organic layer; 
 a second light-emitting device disposed in a second region adjacent to the first region on the substrate and not including a transfer organic layer; and 
 a level difference provided between the first region and the second region, wherein the level difference comprises a difference between a thickness of a material disposed between the substrate and the first light-emitting device and a thickness of a material disposed between the substrate and the second light-emitting device.
